Chapter 546: Triggering the Treasure Seal
Boom!!!
The White Ice Meteorite, possessing immense force and weight, pierced through the Light of Azure Resilience, shattered clusters of giant trees, and then slammed into the mountainside, detonating violently.
Countless hailstones shot out wildly, and ice mist surged into the sky, rapidly enveloping the entire battlefield.
Ning Zhuo's figure was completely obscured; only the Three Generals Camp, situated in the sea of fire, remained united and held its ground.
Earth Element—Earth Evasion Art!
Ning Zhuo continuously dived deep into the underground.
A layer of white frost covered his body, and the ice frost constantly thickened, launching a fierce erosion against him.
"Even if I cast three spells in a row, I cannot block a single spell from the Heaven Frost ghost cultivator!"
Ning Zhuo felt a chill in his heart.
This head-on confrontation clearly revealed the gap between the two sides.
"This should be the strongest enemy I have ever faced head-on, right?"
Come to think of it, Master Long was undoubtedly stronger than Heaven Frost, but in the previous ambush, the White Jade Camp was the main force resisting Master Long head-on. Although Ning Zhuo participated, he only acted as the Shi Zhong old monster alongside Sun Lingtong, scavenging for benefits all over the battlefield.
At this moment, he was not only facing Heaven Frost head-on but was also the main force resisting Heaven Frost, immediately feeling unprecedented, immense pressure.
"Cough, cough."
Ning Zhuo suddenly coughed, and tiny ice particles appeared in the blood he spat out.
He was secretly shocked, as he had already cast healing spells, yet the effect was poor.
"Xiao Zhuo, use a Warm Fire Pill to heal your injuries," Sun Lingtong reminded him in time.
Ning Zhuo followed the advice and immediately swallowed a Warm Fire Pill. He channeled his magic power and rapidly circulated the medicinal efficacy; it was indeed effective and swift. Not only did a warm current surge within his body, dispelling the cold, but even the white frost on the surface of his body gradually melted away.
"My Five Elements spells are inclined toward offense; I haven't put much effort into healing on ordinary days."
Facing an unprecedentedly strong enemy, Ning Zhuo immediately discovered his own shortcomings.
"The combat power of the Three Generals Camp is already struggling to deal with one Earth Grey; I cannot rendezvous with them, but should instead try my best to entangle the Heaven Ghost Heaven Frost, striving to let the Three Generals Camp retreat first!"
Ning Zhuo had the Mechanical Roaming Dragon on him, which was equivalent to mastering the Nascent Soul's Evasion Art. Therefore, although the enemy situation was deep and fierce, causing him to feel quite pressured, he was not flustered.
He had been continuously investing in the Three Generals Camp; if the entire Three Generals Camp were wiped out in this battle, it would be an extremely significant loss for him.
"Next, I will cast spells from underground to attack Heaven Frost from afar!"
Earth Element—Flying Rock: Standing Awl.
Ning Zhuo was just about to aim at Heaven Frost when he suddenly felt something with his spiritual sense and instantly shifted the direction of his attack, shooting the awl-like rocks toward various places below.
Ghostly monsters let out painful roars or hisses one after another.
Their sneak attack was discovered by Ning Zhuo and fiercely suppressed for a wave, but there were still over a dozen ghosts rushing toward Ning Zhuo from bottom to top.
These ghostly monsters were pitch black, with orange-red lava cracks distributed all over their bodies, emitting intense fire qi.
They were all well-versed in Earth Evasion Arts, shuttling underground as if they were in their element.
"Earth Melt Ghosts!"
Ning Zhuo shouted inwardly and cast a spell, forming a second round of offensive.
Although he killed quite a few Earth Melt Ghosts again, at the same time, more and more ghosts surged over like waves.
Sun Lingtong used the Mechanical Roaming Dragon to scout a range far deeper and further than Ning Zhuo. He immediately warned: "Xiao Zhuo, don't linger in the same spot."
"Understood!" Ning Zhuo immediately fought while moving, killing a large number of Melt Ghosts along the way.
Suddenly, he felt an intense chill arise from thin air, launching a fierce erosion against him from the inside out. In just a few breaths, his movements slowed, his limbs stiffened, and even his eyebrows were covered in frost flowers.
Sun Lingtong hurriedly reminded: "It's Heaven Frost attacking you! But how he did it, I don't know."
Ning Zhuo used his spiritual sense to look inward: "It's my soul! His offensive originates from my soul, harming my physical body."
Divine Ability—Frost Soul Gaze!
The white-clothed ghost cultivator Heaven Frost hovered high in the sky, his right hand pinching a sword finger, held vertically in front of his chest, silently channeling his divine ability.
His eyes were completely ghostly white, and in his special field of vision, only the soul forms of living beings were revealed.
At this moment, he was focusing on Ning Zhuo's soul.
The divine ability he cast was extremely profound. As long as one was stared at by Heaven Frost for more than three breaths, the target's three souls and seven spirits would be enveloped by chill. But this chill did not harm the soul first; instead, it expanded outward, harming the physical body.
Only after the physical body was frozen to death and necrotic would the accumulated terrifying cold energy roll back, bringing a devastating blow to the cultivator's soul.
Ning Zhuo was targeted by Heaven Frost, and the situation plummeted, becoming increasingly critical.
He hurriedly took out various elixirs and swallowed them wildly. The medicinal efficacy of the elixirs was rapidly circulated, turning into streams of medicinal power that flowed through his whole body, either dispelling the cold, bringing vitality, or restoring flesh and blood.
Ning Zhuo's combat readiness was quite sufficient. It was mainly because he was wealthy, allowing him to purchase many elixirs before the great battle. These elixirs were categorized, and although their grades were just passable, he won by quantity.
Fire Element—Cloak in Flame!
At the critical moment, his profound Five Elements realm once again manifested its power, allowing Ning Zhuo to have his thoughts turn rapidly in the crisis, consuming thousands of mirror thoughts in his spirit sea to conceive a Fire Element defensive spell.
Flames erupted from the Fire Element Heart Temple, rapidly burning through his entire flesh and blood. Ning Zhuo's body was enveloped by a warm fire from the inside out.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...
Ning Zhuo suffered the scorching of the flames, his flesh and blood being worn away by the fire, like meat skewers being grilled, immediately emitting a charred smell.
Heaven Frost's vision was very special and immediately detected the changes in Ning Zhuo. He sneered and suddenly restrained the power of his divine ability.
In an instant, the cold energy greatly diminished, causing Ning Zhuo to burst into flames all over, with tongues of flame rising three feet above his head.
Ning Zhuo was easily calculated by Heaven Frost and couldn't help but groan in pain, subconsciously wanting to stop the Cloak in Flame spell immediately. But at this moment, a flash of spiritual light suddenly streaked across his spirit sea.
The spiritual light was like a bolt of lightning, splitting the sky of his spirit sea, slashing away nearly a thousand mirror thoughts along the way.
Ning Zhuo invested a portion of his spiritual sense, channeling it into his heart.
The statue inside the Fire Element Heart Temple immediately became lifelike, with Ning Zhuo's appearance in its brows.
Through this change, Ning Zhuo immediately felt that his control over Fire Element spells had suddenly risen to another level.
He hurriedly lowered the power of the flames, making it match the current erosion of the cold energy.
"Eh?" Sun Lingtong was both surprised and happy.
He was very clear about Ning Zhuo's situation, knowing that although the latter's Five Elements realm was quite profound, many spells were neglected in practice, and the actual combat effect was another matter.
Especially this kind of spell created on the spot, it had too strong a targeting nature, but often lacked flexibility.
Heaven Frost's combat experience was too rich, and his eye for detail was old-fashioned and unique; he saw at a glance that Ning Zhuo's spellcasting was quite stiff, so he advanced by retreating, suddenly restraining the power of his divine ability, easily forcing Ning Zhuo into a desperate situation again.
But he also didn't expect that Ning Zhuo would control the heat of the spell at the critical moment, actively adapting to the drastic change in cold energy.
In fact, even Ning Zhuo himself didn't expect it.
"I borrowed the existence of the Fire Element Heart Temple in my haste, only then did I timely design this Fire Element spell."
"Because the source fire is emitted from the Fire Element Heart Temple and the participation degree is very high, I can indirectly adjust the strength of the spell's power by controlling the Fire Element Heart Temple. Wonderful!"
This small breakthrough on the spot was like opening a new window for Ning Zhuo.
Heaven Frost rapidly adjusted the power of his divine ability, making it sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and Ning Zhuo also immediately made adjustments, causing the Cloak in Flame on his body to sometimes grow and sometimes shrink.
Heaven Frost probed once, confirming that Ning Zhuo could parry this layer of offensive, and couldn't help but reveal a strange look on his face: "This kid's situation is strange; he seems to have mastered some secrets, and his combat potential is very sufficient." "However, if you think you can resist my divine ability so easily, then that is too naive!"
Even after forcing Ning Zhuo to this extent, Heaven Frost had never exerted this divine ability to its maximum.
The fully exerted Frost Soul Gaze could generate icy intent that was bitterly cold, reaching directly into the cultivator's Upper Dantian spirit sea, spreading and freezing all thoughts!
Heaven Frost took a deep breath and immediately stopped holding back, fully channeling his divine ability.
For a time, terrifying cold intent was like a heavenly waterfall pouring backward, descending into Ning Zhuo's Upper Dantian, bringing boundless cold intent and freezing all the mirror thoughts along the way.
These mirror-like thoughts disintegrated one after another, and countless fragments were also submerged by the cold intent, turning into nothingness.
Ning Zhuo had only been cultivating for too short a time, only a mere dozen years or so. On ordinary days, he had never encountered a bottleneck in his spirit sea cultivation and had always felt that the situation was still good.
Now, facing a strong enemy like Heaven Frost, he immediately exposed his huge flaw in spirit sea protection.
The terrifying cold intent had no obstacles and poured in directly, catching Ning Zhuo off guard.
He was good at using the Five Elements realm to design spells, but when it came to his own spirit sea, it was the scope of divine arts. Most spells couldn't exert any force.
Ning Zhuo didn't have a solution and only delayed for a few breaths of time before more than half of the mirror thoughts in his spirit sea were frozen to death, causing his thinking to slow down several times over.
This situation caused him to completely slide into the abyss of defeat!
At this moment, all his thoughts and thinking were about to be frozen and frozen to death, completely losing the ability to think.
No matter how strong the Five Elements realm was, without thinking, he couldn't conceive any spells.
"Xiao Zhuo!" Sun Lingtong couldn't hold back and was about to make a move to fish Ning Zhuo into the Ten Thousand Mile Roaming Dragon to escape through the air.
At this very moment, a magic treasure in Ning Zhuo's mind suddenly bloomed with boundless Buddha light.
The Buddha light shone like a scorching sun, and wherever it went, it cleared away all icy cold intent.
It was none other than the My Buddha Heart Demon Seal!
This heavy treasure was passively triggered, emitting infinite Buddha light, protecting Ning Zhuo's spirit sea.
In the Buddha light, countless Buddha thoughts were generated in an instant.
In the time of a few breaths, there were tens of thousands of Buddha thoughts distributed in Ning Zhuo's spirit sea.
Ning Zhuo's thinking ability rapidly recovered!
"So dangerous!"
"I was one line away from complete defeat."
Tens of thousands of Buddha thoughts in the Buddha light shone brightly, and at the same time, the Buddha light traced upward, counterattacking onto White Frost.
"Ah!" White Frost let out a miserable scream and hurriedly covered his eyes.
From the slits of his tightly closed eyes, large amounts of blood spilled out.
In the blood, there was actually overflowing Buddha light!
White Frost was a ghost cultivator and was restrained by Buddhist cultivation methods. This time, he used his divine ability and formed an extremely tight connection with Ning Zhuo, being backlashed by the Buddha light, and his eyes suffered heavy injuries.
In a short period of time, it was absolutely impossible to use the divine ability Frost Intent Gaze again.
Sun Lingtong shouted: "Xiao Zhuo, good opportunity, strike while he's down! Let's attack with all our might."
Ning Zhuo, however, shook his head: "Fighting and killing, right and wrong, are all illusions; what meaning is there?"
Sun Lingtong:?!
Although White Frost had his eyes tightly closed, his field of vision was filled with such large swaths of Buddha light.
These Buddha lights also shone on his spirit sea, dispelling his other thoughts and using a large number of Buddha thoughts to replace them.
"These damn... Ah!" White Frost began to repent in his heart: "I am truly damnation."
"Why go to persecute others, persecute such a vivid and young beautiful life?"
"I am not a human; doing this is too contrary to heaven! Why not be kind to others?"
"May all living beings be peaceful... my ass."
At the end of his thinking, White Frost forcibly twisted it back and fiercely cursed in his heart.
"These damn Buddha thoughts, get out of my spirit sea!"
White Frost did not launch a new offensive, and Ning Zhuo did not take the opportunity to attack, but instead released the Floating Ice White Jade Hand to urgently heal himself.
Both sides fell into a strange, calm confrontation.
"We take turns attacking!" Liu Er shouted.
The confrontation between the Three Generals Camp and Earth Grey turned into a white-hot state.
Liu Er, Generals Guan Hong, and Zhang Hei rushed out of the iron barrel formation, taking turns to make moves to deal with Earth Grey.
This Earth Ghost of the Heaven and Earth Twin Ghosts immediately channeled his magic power to carry out a transfer.
The spell he cast was not the ordinary Earth Evasion Art, but the Earth Walking Art, which had higher requirements and stronger utility!
The Three Generals Camp had participated in the ambush battle and had seen the Shi Zhong old monster rely on the Earth Walking Art, knowing well its wonderful uses.
Therefore, when they saw the Earth Ghost also use such a spell, they immediately changed their target.
"Wah-ya-ya, White Ghost, eat my spear!" Zhang Hei rushed into the high sky, handing the spear to Heaven Frost, his killing intent fully exposed.
Heaven Frost kept his eyes tightly closed, his spiritual sense always maintained.
Just as the Black Snake Spear was about to touch the White Ghost's skull, the latter suddenly reached out.
Clang!
Heaven Frost's hands directly blocked the heavy Black Snake Spear, emitting a crisp sound of metal collision.
Spell—Nine Nether Cold Soul Claw!
Heaven Frost's five fingers condensed black ice, forming a heavy-duty claw glove like cold ice.
A large number of ice souls were sealed in the claw glove; every time it swung, it could bring out ice wind. In the ice wind, countless painful human faces of ice souls appeared, emitting mournful wails, which would cause great interference to spiritual sense.
The next moment, Heaven Frost swung his claws.
Woo-woo-woo...
Zhang Hei was hit by the violent cold energy and the mournful wails of the ice souls, immediately falling from the high sky.
But immediately after, Generals Guan Hong, blessed with a large amount of military power, replaced Zhang Hei to challenge the Heaven Ghost.
After Generals Guan Hong, it was Liu Er.
The three of Liu, Generals Guan, and Zhang had experienced many battles and had already developed a tacit understanding. Relying on this layer of tacit understanding, they formed a continuous offensive.
The Heaven Ghost was quite embarrassed.
It was mainly because every time he wanted to counterattack, the Buddha thoughts in his spirit sea would pop out, participating in thinking and causing trouble.
This made every time he had the heart to kill, he had constraints.
Even his thinking was restricted, let alone him channeling spells.
The Heaven Ghost was forcefully forced back by the three generals.
Seeing this scene, Earth Grey laughed out loud.
It was his first time seeing his best partner so embarrassed.
Hearing Earth Grey's laughter, Liu, Generals Guan, Zhang, and Ning all felt a tightness in their hearts, simultaneously realizing that the opponent had not yet gone all out! ===== CHAPTER 547 =====
